Our Verdict

An affordable, beginner-friendly VPN with a large server network and a rare always-on independent audit of its no-logs policy.

Best for: First-time users who want an affordable, audited VPN.

PureVPN rounds out our top five as an affordable, approachable option with a genuinely interesting privacy feature: an always-on independent audit of its no-logs policy, which few rivals offer.

Its apps are simple and beginner-friendly, the server network is large, and long-term plans are among the cheapest here, backed by a 31-day money-back guarantee.

Speeds trail our top picks and a few features are paid add-ons, but for an audited, low-cost VPN that's easy to get started with, PureVPN is a solid choice.

Pros

  • Affordable long-term plans
  • Always-on independently audited no-logs
  • Large network across 70+ countries
  • Simple, beginner-friendly apps

Cons

  • Speeds trail the top picks
  • Some features are paid add-ons
